Week 137! I don’t know where you are, but here in Central Indiana, it feels like late March or early April. It’s windy, rainy, and freakishly warm. I have a feeling some of my bulbs will pop up if it continues. Yesterday, I went to Dayton, Ohio to the Dayton Art Institute to see an …
I’m going to give this a shot. But, if you’ve been around for a bit, you know how bad I am at following through on things! Amy at Coffee and Cocktails at the Casa is now hosting the “Currently” post on Wednesdays. The idea is you fill in the blank of five participles with photos, …
According to the CDC, around a third of adults don’t get enough sleep. This is compared to the recommended guidelines of a minimum of 7 hours of sleep per night, and teens and young women are the groups that face particularly severe sleep deprivation. Everyone knows that feeling when they wake up a bit groggy …
A couple of weeks ago, Nigel and I were walking somewhere, and I noticed shadows moving ahead of us. I told him we were chasing shadows. He just thought I was goofy. But, I thought Chasing Shadows sounded like a really good idea for a blog post. Where will that take me, though? You can …

Now, our group consists of MK’s Adventures in Style, Deb’s World, Women Over 50 Living Well, Suzy Turner, Once Upon a Time Happily Ever After, Rosie Amber, and me. We are bidding a maybe not …
We’re ba-ack! Did you miss us? Bonus points if you get the reference! If you’re new to the blog, or just need a refresher, Style Imitating Art is a really cool idea pairing fashion with art. Last year, I joined Shelbee and Salazar as curators for SIA. We begin with a piece of art, create looks based upon that …

Tiered maxi dress… Somewhere along the line, I read that tiered dresses were out of style or not on trend. I don’t know about you, but trends don’t really bother me that much. I sorta think of trends as something that sticks around a bit longer than a fad. A fad, in my opinion, is …
Lots of new… This year, I’m going to try really hard to link up with Kym at A Fresh Cup of Coffee for her year long series of Twenty-Six Lists. I think she does a photo challenge the other 26 weeks. Since she does this on alternating Tuesdays, I was torn about how to go …
Nigel and I don’t do much of anything for New Year’s Eve. In fact, he’ll be snoring long before midnight. I’ll be up; I’m always up at midnight! I can really only remember celebrating New Year’s Eve twice in our married life. The first time was before we had kids, and the second one was …
